Hop on a comfy bus tour ready to explore Claude Monet's enchanting gardens in Giverny and the majestic Palace of Versailles. With an audio commentary available on an app, you are in for an immersive experience.
 
Your first stop is the Fondation Claude Monet. Picture yourself strolling through Monet's beautiful gardens, surrounded by the vibrant colors that inspired his masterpieces. Start your adventure in Monet's home, where you will discover fascinating details about the artist's life. Wander through the "blue room" and the sunflower-yellow dining room adorned with Japanese prints. Explore the private apartments and delve into Monet's studio, now transformed into a gift shop with delightful souvenirs. 
 
Switch on your audio guide as you step into Monet's garden, traversing flower-lined paths that influenced his iconic paintings. Marvel at the multicolored flower beds and explore the Clos-Normand, featuring Far Eastern plants. Cross the Japanese bridge over the water garden and gaze upon the famous water lilies, reminiscent of Monet's celebrated painting. Immerse yourself in Monet's world, surrounded by an exotic and ethereal atmosphere.
 
Once you have absorbed the beauty of Giverny, hop back on the bus, heading to Moulin de Fourges or the Bistrot du Moulin restaurant for a delightful lunch of traditional Normand fare. Savor a fish terrine with sour farm cream and mixed green salad, followed by roasted chicken breast with mushroom cream and mashed potato with salted butter. Indulge your sweet tooth with a Norman apple tart accompanied by a scoop of ice cream. Pair your meal with white and red wine or local cider, and complete it with coffee or tea. Special dietary restrictions? Not to worry – alternative choices are available on-site.
 
Reenergized from lunch, your next destination is the awe-inspiring Palace of Versailles. With priority access, you can make the most of your visit. Let the audio commentary be your guide through the King's chambers, each adorned in the style of a God. Marvel at the grandeur of the Hall of Mirrors, where celebrations once took place, offering breathtaking views of Versailles gardens. 
 
Admire the emblem of the Sun King, Louis XIV, symbolizing 17th-century French art. If it is not the season for the Musical Fountains Show and Musical Gardens, explore the gardens at your leisure. Designed by André le Nôtre under Louis XIV, these gardens boast unique, grandiose proportions, featuring statues, sculptures, fountains, flowerbeds, coppices, and reflecting pools.
